Collision Warning (1st warning)
This warning message appears on
the LCD display with a warning
chime. Additionally, some vehicle
system intervention occurs by the
engine management system to help
decelerate the vehicle.
- Your vehicle speed may decelerate
moderately.
- The FCA system limitedly controls the brakes to preemptively mitigate
impact in a collision. - It will operate if the vehicle speed is
greater than 5 mph (8 km/h) and
less than or equal to 38 mph (60
km/h) on a forward vehicle.
(Depending on the condition of the
vehicle ahead and the environment
surrounding it, the possible maxi-
mum operating speed may be
reduced.)
Emergency braking (2nd warning)
This warning message appears on
the LCD display with a warning
chime. Additionally, some vehicle
system intervention occurs by the
engine management system to help
decelerate the vehicle.
- The FCA system limitedly controlsthe brakes to preemptively mitigate
impact in a collision. The brake
control is maximized just before a
collision.

Warning message and warninglight
When the sensor is blocked with dirt,
snow, or debris, the FCA system
operation may stop temporarily.
If this occurs, a warning message will
appear on the LCD display.
The system will operate normally
when such dirt, snow or debris is
removed.
However, the FCA system may not
properly operate in an area (e.g.
open terrain), where any substances
are not detected after turning ON the
engine. Although a warning message will not
appear on the LCD display, the FCA
may not properly operate.
System malfunction
When the FCA is not working prop-
erly, the FCA warning light ( ) will
illuminate and the warning mes-
sage will appear for a few seconds.
After the message disappears, the
master warning light ( ) will illu-
minate. In this case, have the vehi-
cle inspected by an authorized Kia
dealer.
The FCA warning message may appear along with the illumination
of the ESC warning light.OQL058372N

The FCA system may not acti-
vate if the driver applies the
brake pedal to avoid the risk
of a collision.
The brake control may be insufficient, possibly causing
a collision, if a vehicle in front
abruptly stops. Always pay
extreme caution.
The FCA system may not acti- vate depending on road condi-
tions, inclement whether, driv-
ing conditions or traffic condi-
tions. Therefore, the driver
should always pay attention to
the road and be prepared the
apply the brakes at all times.
(Continued)WARNING
The FCA is only a supplemen-tal system for the driver's con-
venience. It is the driver's
responsibility to control the
vehicle operation. Do not
solely depend on the FCA
system. Rather, maintain a
safe braking distance, and, if
necessary, depress the brake
pedal to reduce the driving
speed or stop the vehicle.
In certain instances and under certain driving condi-
tions, the FCA system may
activate unintentionally.
Also, due to sensing limita-
tions, in certain situations, the
front view camera recognition
system may not detect the
vehicle or pedestrians ahead.
The FCA system may not acti-
vate and the warning mes-
sage may not be displayed.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Even if there is any problemwith the brake control func-
tion of the FCA system, the
vehicle's basic braking per-
formance will operate normal-
ly. However, brake control
function for avoiding collision
will not activate.
If the vehicle in front stops suddenly, you may have less
control of the brake system.
Therefore, always keep a safe
distance between your vehicle
and the vehicle in front of you.
Occupants may get injured, if the vehicle abruptly stops by
the activated FCA system. Pay
extreme caution.
The FCA system operates only to detect vehicles in front
of the vehicle.
The FCA system may not acti- vate to all types of vehicles.

mizes the amount of dis-
tance between the vehicle

before the initial warning
occurs. If the ‘EARLY’ con-
dition feels too sensitive,
change it into ‘NORMAL’.
selected, the initial

for a smaller amount of
distance between the
vehicle or pedestrians
ahead before the initial

selected, the initial Forward
Collision Warning is activat-
ed later than normal. This
setting reduces the amount

Prerequisite for activation
The FCA gets ready to be activated,
when the FCA is selected on the
LCD display, and when the following
prerequisites are satisfied.
- The ESC (Electronic Stability
Control) is activated.
- Vehicle speed is over 5 mph (8 km/h). (The FCA is only activated
within a certain speed range.)
- The system detects a vehicle or pedestrian in front, which may col-
lide with your vehicle. (The FCA
may not be activated or may sound
a warning alarm in accordance
with the driving situation or vehicle
condition.)
❈ The FCA may not operate properly
according to the frontal situation,
the direction and speed of pedes-
trian.
FCA warning message and
system control
The FCA system produces warning
messages, warning alarms, and
emergency braking based on the
level of risk of a frontal collision, such
as when a vehicle ahead suddenly
brakes.
The driver can select the initial warn-
ing activation time in the User
Settings in the LCD display. The
options for the initial Forward
Collision Warning include Early,
Normal or Late initial warning time.
WARNING
Completely stop the vehicle
on a safe location before
operating the switch on the
steering wheel to activate/
deactivate the FCA system.
The FCA automatically acti- vates upon placing the Engine
Start/Stop button to the ON
position. The driver can deac-
tivate the FCA by canceling
the system setting on the LCD
display. To avoid driver dis-
tractions, do not attempt to
set or cancel the FCA while
driving the vehicle.
The FCA automatically deac- tivates upon canceling the
ESC (Electronic Stability
Control). When the ESC is
canceled, the FCA cannot be
activated on the LCD display.
The FCA warning light will
illuminate, but it does not
indicate a malfunction of the
system.

• If the front bumper becomes dam-
aged in the area around the radar
sensor, the FCA system may not
operate properly. In this case, we
recommend you have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized Kia
dealer.
• Use only genuine parts to repair or replace a damaged sensor or sen-
sor cover. Do not paint to the sen-
sor cover.
• Never install any accessories or stickers on the front windshield,
or tint the front windshield.
• Never place any reflective objects (i.e. white paper, mirror) over the
dashboard. Any light reflection
may cause a malfunction of the
system.
• Make sure the frontal camera does not get wet.
• Never disassemble the camera assembly, or apply any impact on
the camera assembly.
• Playing the vehicle audio system at high volume may prevent occu-
pants from hearing the FCA warn-
ings.Warning message and warning
light
When the cover is covered with dirt,
snow, or debris, the FCA system
operation may not be able to detect
vehicles.
If this occurs, a warning message will
appear on the LCD display.
Remove any dirt, snow, or debris and
clean the sensor before operating
the FCA system. The system will operate normally
when such dirt, snow or debris is
removed.
However, the FCA system may not
properly operate in an area (e.g.
open terrain), where any substances
are not detected after turning ON the
engine.
Although a warning message will not
appear on the LCD display, the FCA
may not properly operate.

set speed and vehicle to vehicle dis-
tance on the LCD display will go off.)
If the smart cruise control is can-
celled automatically, the smart cruise
control will not resume even though
the RES+ or SET-lever is moved.
✽ ✽NOTICE
If the smart cruise control is cancelled
by other than the reasons mentioned,
take your vehicle to an authorized
Kia dealer and have the system
checked.
✽ ✽NOTICE
If the system is automatically can-
celled, the warning chime will sound
